EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of an elderly Iroquois chief, circa 1904, as he proudly dons a traditional feathered headdress and carries a blanket over his arm. The chief's wise and weathered features tell a story of a life lived in harmony with nature and tradition. This powerful image serves as a poignant illustration of Longfellow's iconic poem, "The Song of Hiawatha," which immortalized the legends and folklore of the Native American people. The photograph, taken around the turn of the twentieth century, offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a connection to the rich cultural heritage of the Iroquois Nation and the indomitable spirit of its people. The image is a poignant reminder of the enduring legacy of Native American history and the importance of preserving and celebrating the diversity of our shared human story.
